WY Stat § 33-21-147 (1997 through Reg Sess) What's This?

A proceeding for discipline of a licensee or a temporary permit holder, or action against an applicant for a license or temporary permit, may be commenced when the board has reasonable grounds to believe that a person under the board's jurisdiction has committed acts in violation of W.S. 33-21-146. No license to practice nursing may be revoked or denied by the board without affording the licensee or applicant due process of law. However, the board may summarily suspend a license and institute proceedings concomitantly if the board finds that the licensee presents a clear and immediate danger to the public health, safety and welfare if allowed to continue to practice. For purposes of a suspension or other restriction imposed pursuant to W.S. 33-21-146(b), the board may presume that the court imposing the suspension or restriction afforded the licensee or applicant due process of law.
